The L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Day Cream is a day cream that comes in a solid white base red lid heavy square glass jar. The glass jar makes it seem luxurious but the weight could be a problem for travelling.
The cream is rich and medium thickness and has a pleasant perfumed fragrance which I liked as lingered on my skin.
I found that I only need a little bit, pea size, of this cream for my face and neck. I did find that my skin did become greasy/oily after an hour or two. This does happen sometimes with other creams I have tried so wasn’t too concerned.
My skin did feel softer and more dewy to the touch and did lap up the moisture.
There's a lot to like about this day cream - it's beautifully light! I have combination skin, and it can be really hard for me to find a day cream that's in that sweet spot of being moisturising while not overly so. The Revitalift cream fits that bill. It also sits nicely under makeup, which is fantastic! I love that it's anti-wrinkle and firming - and I did notice my skin feeling a bit more 'plump' after using it - amazing!
Now here's why I won't use it again... the scent. It's so strong!! It's not a bad scent I suppose, if it was a body cream (maybe?) but I cannot stand how it smells on my face - it's way too much and I can't avoid smelling it. I thought maybe I'd get used to it, but I really don't think I will.
Oh a lesser note, I also wish it came in a pump container - I'm not a big fan of pots of moisturiser - it's just too easy to contaminate a pot by dipping your fingers in, and I've read that moisturiser in pots tends to have its active ingredients break down quicker than in a pump.
I hope l'Oreal decides to come out with an unscented version of this - I'd absolutely buy that! Unscented AND in a pump container? You've got me as a life-long fan. :)
